[IRCA] KRSN 1490's DX test

[Rick Dau <drummer1965usa@xxxxxxxxx>]

And I didn't even think about going after it here, since the tower of KOMJ-1490 is roughly two miles WSW of my QTH (Carl Mann, out in west Omaha, had a better shot at it, but told me he still had to do a very tight null on KOMJ just to get anything).  The night wasn't a total bust for me, though, as I got KJJQ-910 (on day power with South Dakota State Univ. BKB) and XEMR-1140 for entries #688 and #689 in the logbook here.  And KFAB is back to being IBOC-less.

Chances of hearing the KRSN 1490 DX test would have been difficult enough  
at my distance to start with. However, they are made all but impossible due 
to  the splatter of local WLMV 1480 with its Latin music format. In order to 
null  this splatter out I have to turn the loop so that it points SE/NW, or 
almost 90  degrees from what is needed, effectively nulling KRSN along with 
WLMV. Still,  just for the record I did try hearing this test on Sunday 
morning (Saturday  morning was spent listening to 880 with WCBS off-air). No 
luck.
